I am preparing to put a large bibliography composed of separate files under RCS. I was wondering what people were using as `comment' fields within files (I am planning on storing RCS header information under %h independent of any other refer entries). My question is: what conventions besides the original Lesk paper conventions are in use? I am running on a 4.xBSD system, and I did attend Bill Tutil's session in San Diego on "refer - madness." I also know that %X is the current convention on abstracts for things like roffbib. My plans are to use one of the lower case letters %[a-z] for my headers (which should not be printed). I also know that some of the macros are used by refer and its satellite tools, so I will avoid those. If I receive any other interesting conventions, I will post them to net.followup. --eugene miya NASA Ames Research Center
